Daniele Ganser - part 1: How false flag conspirators were recruited
911_bavaria Tue, 02/17/2009 - 6:01pm
In the comming days, I will post several german-speaking interviews with Dr. Daniele Ganser, an academic historian from Switzerland who has researched false flag terrorism in Europe. Besides his publicity around the 9/11 truth movement, I think also his historical work about the so-called "secret armies" is extremly interesting. If you want to get several examples which false flag operations have been definetly proven, how they were uncovered, how they were interlocked with politicians or even brought to courts, Gansers work is a good place to start.
Here is the first video of several in a row. I try to translate about one segment each weekend after work and post them here:

Thanks very much!
The 911 Truth Movement has not had much political impact in the US, and part of the reason is because false flag operations history is not known to the public, in general. Therefore, MIHOP and LIHOP interpretations of 911 seem very strange, and are likely to be dismissed out of hand. With no historical context, this reaction should not surprise us.
IMO, the 911 Truth Movement will not achieve much unless it broadens it's approach. Making the public aware of Ganser's work is a great way to do just that.
I have not read Ganser's book, so I am actually assuming a lot, here. In your opinion (if you have read the book), is it the best example we have of documentation of false flag operations by the West? I have assumed that this is the case since some events were tried in court, and standards of evidence should be high.

Fascinating
I read the section on Greece. It's not clear to me if the American/CIA controlled rightists who set bombs off in Greece before the '67 coup blamed the Greek left (bad on Ganser not to make this clear), however it seems likely.

Ganser has facts wrong
I saw my cousin yesterday, who grew up in Greece, and asked him about Ganser's work. He told me that the Gorgopotamos bridge was not saved by the Greeks during WW2, but rather destroyed by them (both leftists and rightists). Today he has sent me a link, as well, and it looks to me like Ganser has seriously screwed up.
See http://www.sa-snd.gr/docs-pdfs/operation%20harling.pdf .
Of course, this raises questions in my mind about the scholarship of the rest of his book. Does anybody know of critical reviews?

Thanks for digging this up
Have you thought of writing to Ganser himself to ask him about these contradictions?

His work is peer-reviewed, of course (it's his doctorate), but this doesn't mean you shouldn't be cautious with everything he says, of course:
You can find a criticial (it's a "conspiracy 9/11 theory book") review here: http://www.intelligence-history.org/reviews5-1.htm
And I found several remarks in this Wikipedia discussion: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:Verifiability/Archive_21
Yes
I had trouble finding his email on his website, however. So, I went to his review page, and sent a request to a reviewer (whose review has his own email address) and asked him to forward. I will now email Ganser directly.
His web page, http://www.danieleganser.ch/Besprechungen-von-Buechern.html , lists many reviews, but all but one is in German, and the other one is in Danish. I speak neither language, though I know how to say "Gesundheit!" :-)
